It all started when...

Lawyer Iain Mack was diagnosed with melanoma in 2001. Iain was shocked to learn that a person diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer in the UK is twice as likely to die from the disease as someone diagnosed in Australia.

He travelled to Brisbane to find out why and learned from Australian doctors that they screen for skin cancer and are experts at early detection.

On a mission to reduce skin cancer deaths in the UK, Iain founded The MOLE Clinic in 2003 and launched skin cancer screening to the UK. Iain is Managing Director and leads our team of specialist nurses, expert GPs and dedicated consultants who share a passion for early detection.

The MOLE Clinic is now the UK's leading independent and award-winning skin cancer screening clinic.

We firmly believe prevention is better than cure. We are succeeding in our mission. Our high quality and technologically-advanced approach ensures that we regularly detect life-threatening skin cancers - almost all of which are detected early and are therefore easily treated.

And today...

We look after 7,000 private patients and 10,000 patients for NHS GPs every year.

Our aim is to increase the number of our clinics, and work with clinical partners, nationwide to ensure that everyone has access to expert skin cancer screening.
